Advising

Fire Science Program Closure

Beginning fall quarter 2013, the Bellevue College Fire Science program will no longer be accepting new students. For a variety of reasons, the program is no longer able to continue to offer courses toward the completion of an AA degree in Fire Science or Fire Officer, Fire Prevention or Fire Investigation Certificates of Completion.

For students intending to complete Fire Science core curriculum via the credit by certification process (converting fire service related training into college credit), please contact our office to meet with Paul Weatherly, Director of Fire Science Program. A student may obtain up to 25% of their AA degree via the credit by certification process. Students may submit petitions for this process through the end of winter quarter 2015.
